The 144th Fighter Wing, Air National Guard, is giving advance notice of a planned request for quotation (RFQ) to repair body damage on a 2019 Ford F-150 in Fresno, California.

How to submit: Email to jarrod.sanchez@us.af.mil. What to include is under Full summary below. Check the solicitation's instructions on SAM.gov.
Things to watch
From the version posted Oct 22, 2026.
- Worth checking: Small business set-aside with a category still open. SAM.gov lists a total small business set-aside, but the text says a specific socioeconomic category will be decided after marketplace review.
- Worth checking: Presolicitation only. No RFQ has been issued. The notice says one is being considered, so quoting comes later, if at all.
- Minor: Repair facility address requested. Firms must give the address of their automotive repair facility, so the work likely happens at a shop you operate.
